Shelter is an immersive exhibition about our domesticity throughout the seasons of life. Inspired by isolation necessitated by the pandemic, eight 6' greenhouses provide viewers a coronavirus safe space to reflect upon their own recent domestic experiences.

"As an artist deeply connected to nature, I have always considered my plants to be a reflection of my personal well-being. Shelter is an immersive exhibition about our domesticity throughout the seasons of life." - Lila Beavers
